They decided to leave their Old School Black Metal style, and instead went for Death Metal.
New songs were written, old ones remade, and after a year Invictrius was ready to arise from the shadows of anonymity.
They performed their first show in november 2004 at the Frontline in Gent.
Within the audience was a new guitar player, Thomas. He very much liked what he heard, so he joined the band to do the leads. Invictrius’ style further evolved under his influence, and the new songs became more brutal and more technical. For personal reasons, bass player Philippe had to leave the band.
IN THE SUMMER OF 2005 Invictrius recorded The Butchers Art at underground Studio 13, and after some difficulties, it was released in february 2006. The bass recordings on it were done by Thomas. Tracks:intro,gorement of the swamptrolls,cannibalistic deeds,to the end of day , inhuman ignorance, the butcher's art.
At the same time the band also found a new bass player, Jonathan, who had left his band Tronius Mind(rip) and now joined the ranks of Invictrius.
FEBRUARY 2007 a new song called Hunting Horrified Screams was recorded at the Max's Studios Bruges. Peter Itterbeke (Ex-Channel Zero member) was responsible for the production.
As 2007 neared its end, Miguel decided to leave Invictrius and seek his pleasures elsewhere. We wish him all the best. The bass player, Jonathan, who had up till then only been responsible for the backing vocals, now took Miguels place as lead grunter, a change that was greeted with much enthusiasm from Invictrius’ fanbase.
17/12/2007 - Butcher's Art Demo
Good news, our demo is sold out, so we made a re-issue with an added bonus track: 'Hunting Horrified Screams' featuring bassist john as 2nd vocal. This cd is no longer available from us anymore. So you're lucky if you got a copy.
03/05/2008 - Invictrius is without drummer.
After 4 years, Matthew decided to leave the band, because he doesn't feel like playing pure death metal anymore. We've had a very good time with him and wish him the best of luck. He will always be a good friend.
01/06/2008 - The end of Invictrius.
Invictrius decided to break up the band and go each others way , for the motivation of the remaining members is at it's lowpoint.
We thank all the bands we played with and everyone who supported us,organised gigs for us and all the friends who came out to see us play!!
Maybe we wil return in the far future but only time wil tell.... Keep supporting deathmetal!!!
greetings, Invictrius.
